    I want to thank the Veg ER for trying to save my cat Precious. Unfortunately she didn't make it but I want to thank all of you for being so kind carrying and helpful with everything . Thank you again . In loving memory of Precious .

    Wow how have I not written a review about VEG? So much to say about this wonderful place. Obviously we all don't want to bring our pets to any kind of emergency room but if you have to - bring them here. I've unfortunately had to bring my dog here multiple times but I'm SO happy to have VEG close by and literally open 24/7. My dog is 7 pounds of trouble and love. He has very uncommon conditions and is on a ton of medication. He was first diagnosed at VEG and they've thoroughly taken care of him. From the front desk staff to the vet techs to the doctors (who sit on the floor with your pet and tell you what's wrong) you can't beat the love and care they provide. I know they've renovated but you can literally walk in and see what's happening with your pet. It's never a secret, you're basically allowed in everywhere with them. They comfort you like family, keep you updated and are all so attentive and caring while they do it. I've recommended VEG to so many friends and clients. Unfortunately I'm sure I'll have to bring my dog in again at some point in his life but I'm happy to know they're here for me and my pup.

    Do not bring your pet here!

    This was an absolute waste of time and an incredibly upsetting experience. I am over $1,500 down with no answers and my cat is still sick. The x-rays gave no real indication of what was wrong, and only afterward was an ultrasound mentioned. If that was always going to be the next step, it should have been clearly explained from the start instead of after charging thousands of dollars. I was also advised to keep my cat overnight, which felt like another way to inflate the bill rather than a true medical necessity. When I was informed that the ultrasound would push the total cost beyond $5,000, I had no choice but to walk away and seek care elsewhere. This experience felt predatory, not supportive. It gave corruption and profit over patient, just like what people complain about in regular hospitals. I trusted this facility with my pet during a very emotional time and left feeling taken advantage of. Never again. I just left at 1:39am and I wrote this review immediately!

    I brought my 15+ Jack Russell in on a Monday night with serious vomiting and dehydration. I was panicked because she had never been this sick before. She was immediately taken to triage to be checked. The doctors and nurses were kind and calm (with both Lexi and with me) and kept me updated. During our time there Monday night I saw the compassion they showed to the other humans with their animals and the they showed the upmost respect and sensitivity to everyone. When they recommended keeping her overnight I was scared but knew it was the best place for her. They allowed me to bring her bed and lambchop (she's a very sassy, spoiled old broad) and immediately she was the center of attention. I was updated throughout the day of her progress and when I went back to bring her home, the vet sat down with me, explained everything and gave me her medication with directions as well as a suggestion to follow up on in a week with our vet. She was treated like a princess (carried around in a sling and given lots of attention and love) and I could tell the her anxiety was almost non existent when i showed up to get her. She was loved and cared for and safe and that what mattered most to me and my little girl. I can not say enough kind things and thank you all enough for helping my girl (and me) through very scary night. I have told everyone how wonderful you all are and if, god forbid, I have another emergency, we are coming right back to you. Thank you, so very much.

    Everyone is super friendly and kind. No stress as they are open 24/7. My Cat Candy was handled with care. It's not far from me so it will be my go to for emergency situations with my furry family. Only downside is the cost. It's not cheap. But nothing in NJ ever is.

    At VEG, when he was demanding to be in my lap even though he was still hooked up to an IV and only a day post-op.

    I had to bring my 9-year old cat, Kiba, to VEG in the late evening of New Years Day, after he had gotten badly sick twice and was quickly becoming lethargic. They did X-Rays when an ultrasound showed signs of something stuck inside him, and those showed multiple foreign bodies in his small intestine. He was admitted for surgery by Dr. Lynch after I spent a tense 30 minutes getting a CareCredit account set up and going over the estimated budget it would take to save him. He spent two full days there, and had a tense follow-up 24 hours after I brought him home. He hadn't eaten anything at home, and he was looking very much like he'd have to be euthanized. But he rallied when we got there, and after getting a couple more injections that finally kick-started his appetite again along with reducing the inflammation in his innards, we brought him home again and finally saw him turn around. He's 10 days post-surgery today, and has fully healed and is back to his old, cuddly, loving self. I went in terrified I was going to lose my boy, and now it looks like I'll have him for several more years. I wish 24/7 emergency centers like VEG weren't so expensive, but after reading about the specialized training and certifications that all staff of these centers must have, and how they need to be able to handle literally anything that comes through their doors, I do understand it. The important thing is that they were able to save my cat, who I love as much as any of my kids. And they, both in their 20s, spent half their life with him and would have been just as devastated if we'd lost him. Also have to note that every pet that came through the door while I was sitting with him during his recovery was treated with the same level of attention and care as he'd gotten. Not all of them made it, sadly, but the staff consistently did everything they could to help and ease the pain of the worried and distraught owners. Thanks so much, VEG and especially Dr. Lynch and Kiba's nurses!

    Way too expensive. Price was so high I had to open an account with Care Credit. We're never going back. Yes the staff was kind but for $1,900.00, nope. Never going back. They did not find the root cause either. They said they couldn't find where tge blood was coming from. They sent us home in the same condition we came in. A few days later, the bleeding stopped. If tge couldn't find what was wrong with my Mister, how did they know what would stop it? They could have just given me the meds without running the tests. Especially since tge tests didn't give them an answer.

    Last week my fur baby Scooby started to vomit bile. My vet was closing and referred me to VEG. Thank goodness. The compassion and love they showed towards our baby was overwhelming. From start to finish I was allowed to be with my fur baby. Which would not have happened if I took him to his regular vet. (They don't allow you inside the building). Unfortunately my fur baby had to be put to rest. Dr. Winter and the entire staff were so compassionate. They helped us through the process and everyone hugged us. (I was a crying mess). They allowed us to stay with him as long as we wanted to grieve. They even gave us his paw prints. As hard as this ordeal was for my family, VEG made it a bit more comforting. Thank you Dr. Winter and the staff.

    Stop making so much noise, I am trying to sleep.

    See all

First of all, they wouldn't even let me go in with her -- which was horrifying. My little girl has been by my side for 14 years; she's never been without me. To imagine her scared, not feeling well, and taken away from me like that just broke my heart. After giving her the medication she needed, they sat us down and presented an outrageous estimate -- over $10,000 just to keep her alive. Before we even went, I had spoken with my regular vet. He told me exactly what to ask for and what my dog needed. He also specifically advised me never to leave any of my dogs overnight at a hospital unless it was absolutely crucial. I trusted his judgment -- and I knew in my heart my girl would be okay with the right care. But the emergency clinic tried to guilt and scare us, saying that if we didn't leave her there, she would die. Shame on them. It's devastating to see what so many of these vet hospitals are becoming -- businesses more focused on money than compassion. They take advantage of pet owners when we're at our most vulnerable, knowing how deeply we love our animals, and then pressure us into debt with fear tactics. It's disgusting and heartbreaking to see. Our pets deserve genuine care -- not manipulation. And pet owners deserve honesty and compassion, not financial exploitation in our moments of panic and pain.

So, what do you do when you have trust issues and don't want your furry friend left alone in a cage overnight with just a camera for monitoring? You choose K9 Stay & Play!

Roxy, who turns 11 in June, is a double doodle (half golden doodle, half labradoodle) and an absolute sweetheart. She got along well with the other two dogs, and I received reassuring texts and pictures to let me know she was doing fine. Plus, she came home smelling great--not that typical "I've been around 100 dogs" odor. K9 Stay & Play is exceptionally clean; every area is meticulously maintained, both inside and outside. At checkout, Roxy was all packed and ready to go! Everything I left with her was cleaned and organized. Just WOW! Sal and his family made my picky pup feel right at home. Now, she has a vacation spot too! Thank you, Sal and family, for giving me peace of mind so I could truly enjoy my vacation.
